Some propagandist poster here said something about CIA helping people of Eastern Europe get novels banned by their commie regimes, and I had to respond, I just didn't quote the text, but I think it was pretty obvious what I was responding to. My point was that regimes that fight books and writers do not end up well, and that those who do now might want to think of how THAT monster ended to stop making the same mistakes. You're right that I cannot fight something that's already down, and I have no such goal whatsoever.
And you have no doubt my friend, that those giving orders to the media you watch to show how the "evil Ukrainian troops" use "phosphorous bombs" against "civilians" will discard your life just as well, when they think time is right.
